The iBRoad Renovation Roadmap and Logbook are subjected to field testing in the pilot countries, Bulgaria, Poland and Portugal. By testing their practicality and manageability, the participating energy auditors and building owners feed their experiences back into the tools for further adjustments. Fifteen to twenty buildings per pilot country are examined […]

During their latest interaction, the projects identified potential clustering opportunities ranging from dissemination to technical activities. There […]
The iBRoad project intends to explore, design, develop and demonstrate the concept of individual building renovation roadmaps, outlining a deep step-by-step renovation plan with customised recommendations for individual buildings (the Renovation Roadmap), combined with a repository of building-related information (the Logbook). In this context, iBRoad develops IT solutions which support […]
Report on suggested elements, content and layout of the iBRoad tools.
